Hi,
celebrating our 1st anniversary with a hike! Sept 12.
We would like to be out for 3 or 4 days, which for us means not more than 20 to 30 miles. Would love to hike through huge old trees and maybe some high meadows and camp at lakes or at least streams for some bathing. I've heard the Sierra Palisades glacier hike in Kings Canyon is spectacular, but I think it's a bit long for us. Usually 6-8 miles and not more than 2-3000ft elevation per day is good.
Any suggestions in this general area would be great! (We are driving from Oakland to Santa Cruz and down to Big Sur, as well - so that area is an option for the hike too.)
Much thanks!
